    Abstract:
    Background: Exosome from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs-Exo) has been shown to inhibit the progression of human diseases, including sepsis-related acute kidney injury (AKI). CircVMA21 is considered to be an important regulator for sepsis-related AKI. However, whether ADSCs-Exo affected sepsis-induced AKI by delivering circVMA21 is not clear. Methods: Adipose-derived stem cells were identified by alizarin red staining, oil red O staining, and flow cytometry. Exosome from adipose-derived stem cells was authenticated by transmission electron microscopy, nanoparticle tracking analysis, western blot analysis, and immunofluorescence assay. Cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry, and inflammation cytokine levels were determined by ELISA. Lactate production was assessed using Lactate Acid Content Assay Kit. The expression levels of aerobic glycolysis-related markers, circVMA21 and miR-16-5p, was evaluated by quantitative real time-polymerase chain reaction. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and RIP assay were employed to detect RNA interaction. Animal experiments were used to evaluate the role of ADSCs-Exo on renal function and cell injury in LPS-induced AKI mice model. Results: Exosome from adipose-derived stem cells inhibited LPS-induced HK-2 cell apoptosis, inflammation, and aerobic glycolysis. Knockdown of exosomal circVMA21 derived from ADSCs enhanced HK-2 cell injury induced by LPS. In terms of mechanism, circVMA21 could serve as sponge for miR-16-5p. Besides, miR-16-5p inhibitor reversed the promotion effect of Exo-sh-circVMA21 on LPS-induced cell injury. In addition, ADSCs-Exo protected LPS-induced AKI in mice by increasing circVMA21 expression and decreasing miR-16-5p expression. Conclusion: Exosomal circVMA21 derived by ADSCs relieved LPS-induced AKI through targeting miR-16-5p, which provided a potential molecular target for treating sepsis-related AKI.
